He told me Ospho can be purchased at Home Depot or Lowes for about $30.00 but I can't find it anywhere here in CA. and it's twice that price on line.

Anyone in California have you been able to find or is this something else we can't buy here
I know this is a few months out, but I found it at a Sherwin Williams in Roseville (I think it was Roseville). Call them and ask.
